Thread: Big Trade with Edmonton
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>Doesn't have to be Ottawa's 2nd, that was just the one I picked. Large thumbs, small phone lol.

The other 2nds look to be in the late 40's to early 50's range. That's a significant jump for two guys who likely aren't going to be in Ottawa long term anyway.

I like Duclair, but I think the upside on Puljujarvi is enough that I'd be willing to make that bet. I'd also like to clear room for a guy like Balcers or Formenton to play higher in the lineup next year, and I think Logan Brown could be a really good fit as a winger next year.</div></div>

Ahh lol.

I just don't know if Puljujarvi is the right fit in Ottawa. Really depends on what happens at the draft as far as next season's lineup. I think Formenton has a chance but it all depends

Thread: Habs TDL and summer moves to get Brodin Puljujarvi Kreider and Dadonov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rb1481</b></div><div>It looks crazy, but for a Colorado team who is in win-now mode with their young D on entry-level contracts. Adding a top-4 in Petry who could help this year and next, and Tatar who could replace Rantanen in the top-6, gives them a good chance. Timmins is behind Byram in the D prospect pool, and their 1st will likely be a late pick anyway. Newhook is a couple years away, and they need impact players now.</div></div>

I get your point but there's no way they can give up Timmins, Newhook and a 1st for 2 guys that are on expiring deals next season. Newhook is electric and it's a deep 2020 draft. If they ever wanted to deal those guys, I guarantee you they can get better players with term instead. But I do get your point.

Thread: Lafreniere Georgiev etc
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>You Sens fans need to learn how to read properly..

I never said that Ottawa should make that deal. I said it's more likely that's what the Rangers would be looking for. You've gotta convince the other team that your offer is the best, and Abramov and a 2nd doesn't do anything for the Rangers who are nearing the end of their rebuild.

Convince Ottawa to do it? The Rangers would most likely point out how more important goaltending is than a future middle 6 forward. Again, I'm not saying the Sens should do that. But that's the kinda deal it would take. Otherwise the Rangers hold on to Georgiev and move him in the summer when more teams need a goalie and the market opens up to maximize the return. A prospect and a pick do nothing for the Rangers to convince them it's the best for their team.</div></div>

If you're suggesting that trade, expect the heat no matter what lol. I acknowledged your argument earlier. I just honestly can't see how that's not a MASSIVE overpayment on the sens end.
